RALEIGH, N.C. — Freshman sensation Cooper Flagg and top-seeded Duke will be heading to the Sweet 16 after handling ninth-seeded Baylor in an 89-66 victory in the East Region’s second round Sunday afternoon.

Tyrese Proctor poured in 25 points and Flagg scored 18 points as the hot-shooting Blue Devils recorded their second tournament blowout in three days.

Kon Knueppel racked up 12 points as part of the Blue Devils’ rousing performance in front of a large contingent of their fans just about a half-hour drive from campus.

Duke (33-3), which has a 13-game winning streak, faces Arizona or Oregon in the Sweet 16 round Friday night at Newark, N.J.

VJ Edgecombe posted 16 points, Norchard Omier had 15 points and Langston Love finished with 11 points for Baylor (20-15). The Bears won back-to-back games only once since January and they couldn’t produce another winning streak in the tournament.

Former Duke guard Jeremy Roach, who was a key part of the team’s 2022 Final Four team, completed his only season with Baylor with a seven-point outing off the bench.

Proctor went 3-for-4 from beyond the arc in the first half and then added three more 3s in a 2-minute, 15-second stretch in the second half. For good measure, he drained another 3-pointer with less than three minutes left.

Then he and Flagg, who also had nine rebounds and six assists, exited the game to another round of applause.

The Blue Devils ended the first half on a 12-0 run to go up 47-30, aided by 65-percent shooting from the field. Flagg had 15 points by the half and Proctor’s three 3s helped him to 11 first-half points.

Flagg picked up his second foul with an offensive infraction with 6:42 left in the first half and sat out for about three minutes. He was unfazed, with his 3-pointer extending the Blue Devils’ lead to 40-30 with more than two minutes left in the half.
